SARVIA'S WORLDS
The Lutu Family
A cerulean blue world
Sarvia has been naming characters since before she could spell - in the bedtime stories that earned her a Guinness World Record.
Lutu was the first she brought to canvas at scale.
A small figure in a blue world that grew to include a mother and a father.
Every night before sleep, Sarvia says goodnight to Lutu, Lutu's Mommy, and Lutu's Daddy.
They are not paintings to her. They are family.
The palette holds cerulean, sky, and deep ocean in every canvas.
Cream face planes, asymmetric eyes, bold black outlines - the visual language that defines everything that came after begins here.
The Princess World
Warm gold, earth tones & gold leaf
Royalty as Sarvia imagines it - not crown and court, but warmth and presence. The Flower Princess arrived first.
Princess Komata and Princess Gudu followed - each named before the canvas was prepared. Each one painted from the inside out.
Real gold leaf is worked into the surface of Princess Komata and Princess Gudu - giving each figure an icon-like, almost sacred presence.
The Princess World is the most materially complex series in the collection.
The Lampin Family
Lavender and deep violet cosmos
The most recent of the three families. Lampin and Gampin inhabit a quieter, more interior world - lavender skies, deep violet, a cosmos that feels both intimate and infinite.
Lampin's Mother - so far the only figure in Sarvia's universe with symmetrical eyes - anchors the series with the stillness of someone who has always been there.
Her sunflower crown radiates outward. Her arms reach toward the world. She was painted by a child who knows what it feels like to be held.
Lampin's Mother is not available. She belongs to the family.
Characters between worlds
A world apart
The only work outside the three family series - painted on a pure black ground,
the first time Sarvia used black as a background. Neon orange, electric blue,
yellow and purple explode off the dark surface with an energy unlike anything else in the collection.
She named him herself. He was painted as a singular figure in a world of his own.
Recently, Sarvia has begun calling Dint-Om-Pi Lutu's small brother -
connecting him to the blue world unprompted, on separate occasions.
Whether he belongs to the Lutu Family or exists between worlds is a question only she can answer.
He may not be alone after all.
